Multi So Easy, a Caveman Can Do It!
Ugg say: “Cache here. Lock closed. You go look, you count smart.”
Ugg himself guard the lock. He say, “Only smart cachers open this box!”
Good news, brave hunter: The cache is at the posted coordinates… but it is secured with a 3-digit lock.
To open it, visit three nearby waypoints. Each reveals one number for the combination. Once you have all three digits, head to the cache armed with your code and unlock the prize!
About the Trail
This adventure takes place along the Squirrel Run Trail — a short, fun loop through nature that even Ugg’s pet squirrel could finish without breaking a sweat!
- Trail Length: Approximately 0.5 mile round trip — just enough to awaken your inner caveman appetite.
- Terrain: semi-maintained and semi-marked. Walk surfaces are dirt/grass and are uneven with the natural grades. Perfect for little cave explorers and big-footed adventurers alike.
- Estimated Time: 15–30 minutes, depending on how distracted you get by shiny rocks or chattering squirrels.
Ugg recommend taking your time — admire nature, listen to birds, and keep an eye out for clever squirrels guarding ancient secrets!
How Caveman Multi Works
- Visit each waypoint (1, 2, and 3) in any order. Observe the object at each and use the chart below to translate what you see into a single digit.
- When you have all three digits, arrange them in order:
Waypoint 1 = 1st digit, Waypoint 2 = 2nd digit, Waypoint 3 = 3rd digit.
- Return to the posted coordinates and unlock the cache. Grunt of victory optional (but encouraged).
- Sign leaf (log) and celebrate your superior cave intellect.
Your Combination (in order):
#1 from Waypoint 1, #2 from Waypoint 2, #3 from Waypoint 3.
Stage Charts (Ugg made simple)
Waypoint 1 → Look at the object’s color
- Green = 5 🟩
- Yellow = 1 🟨
- Red = 9 🟥
Waypoint 2 → Which object do you see?
- 🌳 Tree = 5
- 💧 Water = 2
- 🦴 Bones = 7
Waypoint 3 → What is the object made of?
- 🪨 Rock = 4
- 💧 Water = 9
- 🔥 Fire = 6
HINT: Ugg say, “Visit all clues, then return mighty with code. No smash lock. No eat lock.”
Access & Safety
- Hours: Daylight recommended. Cavemen fear dark; locks do too.
- Terrain: Short, easy strolls between waypoints. No cliff jumps, no saber-tooth wrestling.
- Leave No Trace: Please do not move, mark, or alter any objects. Only observe and record digits.
- Respect: Stay on trails and be stealthy around muggles so tribe secret remain safe.
